# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

*Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number:*                     Navy Health of the Force Survey Program; OMB Control Number: 0703-HOFG.                

*Needs and Uses:*                     The Navy Health of the Force (HoF) Surveys are strategic level engagement survey initiatives designed to assess climate and culture across the entire Department of the Navy enterprise. When deployed, the Health of the Force Survey is tailored to the unique population (Active Duty Navy, Reserve Navy, Active Duty Marine Corps, and Navy civilians) being surveyed, but includes a core set of questions and metrics that support comparisons across the Navy and provide a means for evaluating changes in culture and climate over time. While there is some comparability with other DoD survey initiatives, the HoF Survey program is unique in its ability to support Service-level and DON-level assessments of culture and climate, as well as comparisons across different segments of the DON enterprise. The DON is seeking a Generic Clearance for the HoF surveys as each one features a common set of core questions, utilizes similar statistical and analytical methods, and supports the same goal of assessing climate and culture across the DON enterprise.                

*Affected Public:*                     Individuals or households.
